# Serious Infractions and the Necessities for Sentencing (SINS) Act
### Chapter A. Criminal Acts
1. It is illegal to physically harm or restrict the autonomy of a person without their consent, or to attempt, help, or threaten the same, without reasonable belief it is necessary to prevent a criminal act.
2. It is illegal to infringe on the property rights of a person without their consent, or to attempt, help, or threaten the same, without legal authorization or reasonable belief it is necessary to prevent a criminal act.
3. It is illegal to engage either repeatedly or grossly in conduct reasonably likely to harass, intimidate, or torment a person, or to attempt, help, or threaten the same, even where the conduct is otherwise permitted by law.
4. It is illegal to violate a court order, or to attempt, help, or threaten the same.
### Chapter B. Injunctions
1. The Court may issue a Court Order injunction against a party who has claims being presented against them, at the request of the claimant, for the duration of the case.
2. An injunction is issued for the benefit of a specific party, and should be issued to prevent the irreversible or lasting harm from an illegal act.
3. The Court may issue a Court Order to an unsuccessful claimant to compensate their respondent for the costs incurred in fulfilling an injunction.
### Chapter C. Reparations and Sentencing
1. A party to a trial may be entitled to items or land as reparations for an illegal act or breach of contract committed by another party to the trial through Court Order. A party to a trial may be compelled to transfer or otherwise relinquish any claims on land only in cases concerning land ownership disputes.
2. Reparations should aim to fairly and reasonably compensate the party harmed by an illegal act or breach of contract as far as it is possible for property to do so.
3. A party who has intentionally or recklessly committed an illegal act may be given a sentence instead of being compelled to pay reparations.
4. A sentence is given as a Court Order either compelling the receiving party to spend a period of time pearled or to other actions agreed to by the receiving party.
5. Sentences should aim to adequately and fairly achieve any combination of the following in regards to the party found guilty of breaking the law:
1. Rehabilitate them,
1. Deter them and others who would do similar,
1. Protect others from them,
1. Denounce them, and/or
1. Punish them.
### Chapter D. Standards of Proof
1. An injunction against a respondent will not be available unless there is proven reason to believe that an illegal act will be committed otherwise.
2. Property as reparations for a crime or breach of contract cannot be granted unless it is proven more likely than not that the illegal act or breach of contract was committed by the party being compelled to pay reparations.
3. A sentence other than reparations cannot be granted unless it is proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the illegal act was committed by the party to suffer the sentence.
